Great! Good for you, dude. Don't give up. Best of luck to you!

Ive lost 112 pounds so far just by going low carb!

Try 5lb dumbbell

Stacey… you may not see this since it’s 2022 now, but I just stumbled on this video and loved it. I saw that it was several years ago and when I tried to subscribe I didn’t see any more video that the women and man did. I’m reaching out in hopes you or someone will see this and fill me in on where I need to go or if they even finished out their videos. It’s the best one I’ve found for me and would hate to only have this one to use. Hope I hear from you. Thanks. Treela

@@treelaphillips5841 There are 3 videosith them on Bodylastics page!

Hell yeah. We can do this! Eating fresh fruits and veg help me stay energized for the exercises too

Good for you! Keep going and best wishes with your health x

DarkenedAuras please update us on your progress! I hope all is well

heartgirl79 ☝️Ditto

Update please

Dr. Nowrazaden on 600 pound life. From fellow addict to you call him! You deserve to live!

...and how are you today? ❤

Where are the rest of the videos? Why have they been removed?

Where are episodes three and four?

Yes I can't find episode 2 and so on at your website

Can you please point me to the other videos so I have them on hand? I'm 370 and had just started my journey when I got a leg injury and condition that keeps me from standing. This video is such a blessing not only from a big person standpoint but a chair bound one. I want to make sure to keep following you as I get strong enough to stand again!

+Terri Madwoman : Woo Terri, you inspire me. I want you to know, your story is motivating someone you'll never know---just like Rob does in his videos. Thanks for posting your story and keep on pushing forward with your workouts. Add music. I find that helps.

I hope you are doing well.

but sadly in the end, it WAS bad diet. However you want to dress it. We might have multiple reasons for eating badly, but it doesn't change it that we ARE eating badly and I really hope your daughter isn't following the same path. Hearing someone at 16 weight this much is scary, so please, find help for whatever problem you both have. Therapy, anything.

keep going, I know how you feel, keep at it, one baby step at a time

Good on you! Keep going! How inspiring you are! I am on the weight loss journey also and hearing that others are doing it makes me confident I can too! Good luck to you x

As am i, i am doing good, losing weight, doing more exercises that i thought i could never do..eating simple foods, way less meat..anyways i was tipping over 300, now very close to 200..to all obese people, just move, walking in the house, climbing stairs..good luck to all..keep the faith, it's one day at a time. 😊

I just found this video and seen your comment here. I am starting with these and I am 500lbs and would like to know how you are doing with your weight loss? I have been finding a lot of people that are or were just like me and it helps to know that they did it to let me know I can do it. Thank you and from the comments you have here you are doing great and I hope you keep up doing so.

@@synical_gaming3863 - How are you doing now?

Hey A Fat Girl's Journey! Thanks for the kind words, we're also very excited to finally announce The Launchpad Project with Rob Graulau! It's a pro-mental health, body positive program designed to get you moving and feeling great. Checkout the project here and be sure to share it with your friends! liveexercise.com/fightobesity

hi I don't think that you will reply but I am the same. I have fibromyalgia and would love to get your opinion on some of these exercises. I can do them well for weeks the I have to start on level one again when I have a fibro set back. Do you experience that as well?

+A Fat Girl's Journey OMG I have Fibromyalgia too and have gained weight from the meds and not being able to exercising like I use to love doing I miss it sooo much.

Worst thing i find is being so big and my pain. I feel better when i have ecercised but i pay for it. Pain out of the world. But weight stabilizing a little. Some days i just cant fight it and sit on the couch all day. I also get depressed because i feel usless in my family. Everyone does everything.

Yeah I understand that I am trying to loose some weight if I can other wise it's to help with my mobility basically. But I have a wedding I am supposed to attend my niece's so I wanna look half way decent.

Thank-you Marjorie amaya posadaz and congratulations!! Rob Graulau will be very happy to hear about your progress. Don't stop though, keep working out 4-5 times a week and you'll be amazed at the changes you'll see. Also stay tuned as we've got a whole bunch of surprises coming soon!

I just started this workout and would love to see the kind of results that you have seen. You inspire me! May I ask, are u following a diet as well? If so, what kind? PS: Congratulations on your success! :)

Yes IanzGurrl i am following a diet as well. I am on a low carb high proteins and no sugar diet, as well as no bread or grain. If you want more info or recepies that will help you feel free to send me an inbox message....good luck

Marjorie Alejandra Posadas I got hydrothyroidism as well does this work out really work as having it really affects pains in my legs

How are you now?

Disabled also and knees make mobility painful. I have a bit over 150 to lose. Need to get a chair without arms for this, had to stand for a couple cause the armrests got in the way. Shoot, I'd be happy to just get the 50 off so I can actually move better. I've two flights of stairs in my house, it's a split level. My bedroom is down, my kitchen and bathroom are up. I actually have to 'climb' up my stairs, using my arms to pull myself up due to how easy it is from my knees to give out at any time. I'm going to keep up with this, though I might stick with ep. 1 for a bit till I am able to do it easier. (I'm using 16oz water bottles, I hope to move to cans after a bit.) Then I'll do Ep. 2 and so on. Once I'm doing them better, I'll start using my 3-4 lb weights to do it all the way through for the week. I'm really wanting to get my mobility and stamina back, menopause and a few falls have taken a toll on me. The fact 7 doctors tried to get me into aquatic therapy due to how damaged my knees are... (I used to be a dancer & had a rock band, all females back in the 1980's - it did repetitive damage to a section of my knees inside.) and over 10yrs they tried while my insurance refused. They also refused therapy when I feel even though it says I qualified for it. They even said no fo therapy for lymphedema after I had cancer! But it's all I have for medical. I'm hoping to get a pool, my cousin said he'd try and get one for me. I have tried above-ground pools, but getting in and out on a ladder is frightening. So he's thinking of building a deck for me to get in, though I'm not sure how to get out and back onto the deck. I'm glad I found this, I've used various therapy videos before to get me out of my wheelchair back in 2013-2014 - I'd bought my first pair of sneakers in June of 2014. On the 12th I was diagnoses with cancer. So it was a high and low in the same month. But I really need to get this weight off... I didn't grow up heavy, in fact, I was about 130 till my daughter was born, ending up over 200 lbs. Took a few months, but since I held my weight proportionately, I got the excess 68 lbs off. But then 4yrs later I had the twins... which must have killed my elasticity cause I've not been able to get back down. Since 2014 I've been over 300, dropping down to 289 a few times, but if my activity level goes down, the weight goes up. Healing up after falls kills the wt. lose every time. 2020 really got bad cause I wasn't able to go out. (I'd been going to the aquatic center to swim. It's the only time I lose & don't end up injured.) Depression, loneliness also didn't help. Instead of eating, I tend to not eat as I've no appetite and feel nauseous if I do try to eat. Thankfully, my sons showed up to ride out the lockdown with me. I can't always eat if I'm alone, but my boys won't let me go hungry. My older boy is a wiz with different soups. My younger likes to make sandwiches or omelets. Plus they made sure I had plenty of fruits and veggies. (I raised them on a Mediterranean diet growing up.) Wish me luck, I need to do this... I need to lose weight not only to move better or my health, but I want to live longer to be here for my kids as well as myself. There's a lot more living I want to do, right now, I'm not fully living.

Thank you April Reece! If you want to see more videos like this including ones with Yoga please donate to the Launchpad Project! igg.me/at/end-obesity

thank you for the link! Ill go check it out now :)

"Thank you for understanding that we need exercise for the shape we are now, and not for the shape we want to be" That's it! Couldn't have said it better myself

You can definitely eat healthy on a budget. Just stick to whole foods- fresh fruits and veggies as the main part of your diet and I think those are affordable. Lean meats, beans, tofu as well. For starches, brown rice is a great option. If you stay away from processed, packaged foods, you're already winning half the battle. Good luck.

I weight almost 280 pounds,have fatty liver, and a hurt knee. So I'm going to try this workout as well because I'm just 19 and I can not allow myself to get any worst. Thank you. You all give a sort of push towards doing better just by reading all your comments on such workouts. Because it means im not the only one wanting to do better.

William Graham HONESTLY SPEAKING its not about the food. kids eat all kinds of food and stay thin the majority of them anyways. Why though? Why are they able to do it? its a simple trick that nobody wants you to know about because this is HIGHLY INEXPENSIVE. you won't need their advice, you want need to take their pills or watch their infomercials. limit the portions and keep up the workouts. you will never be over 400 lbs again. see how ez that is? its that simple. We are all told to FINISH OUR PLATES but our parents never included portion control they just filled up our plates and demanded we eat it all. Smaller portions mean less money too! a serving of chicken is 2-3 ozs of meat. Most stores sell meats by the pound but one 1lb of meat (16 oz) is actually 5 servings. You are on your way to a smaller U because EXERCISE IS THE OTHER EQUATION. Food cannot be burned (metabolized) without proper ACTIVITIES. KEEP WALKING. and do this workout you see, I swear you will lose at least 15lbs per month.

slater1ist I have already lost 18 pounds with portion control and the workouts I am going to keep it up because I need to be around to play with my grandbaby

William Graham way to go William, you can do it. YOU CAN DO IT.

You're welcome! We believe exercise should be accessible by everyone, young or old, overweight or very fit. Enjoy and let us know if you need any assistance!

***** bless you, I'm sending positive vibes your way..

Thank you very much, that's very kind :)

How are you doing so far? Hope you are coming along well.

I think I’m gonna try this starting today, I have a desk job as well and can barely move without hurting. I have been intermittent fasting off and on but this is truly motivational!!! Good luck to you! Oct 2020

@@lorilong3454 I found a series of workouts I am liking even better. "Chair Workouts" is the name of the youtube channel. Some of them are a bit much for me but several have been very good

@@Ch3rry475 frankly the intermittent fasting didn't seem to do much for me other than help me about the late night snacking. But the chair Workouts v have seemed to help increase my endurance and lessen the frequency and intensity of my back pain.

Tammy Boughter I was watching an 18 yo athlete say something I never thot about he said, "I work out even when I don't feel up to it. I work out when I'm mad. I work out when I'm bored, I work out when things don't go right at school. I made working out MY JOB". DO THESE EXERCISES LIKE YOU WORK YOUR JOB (if you work) you go to work the same way. when you are bored, sad, mad, lazy you still make it to work. so you still sit down on that chair and work out. MAKE IT YOUR JOB.

+Debora Mcdade Same problem I have! It's amazing how many people don't understand that "just going for a walk" isn't so easy when you're big!

+Crystal Jackson i have to some problem and weight aint no joke

Awesome. 80-90% of it is diet. I used to be morbidly obese myself. Start very small concentrate on good nutrition and keeping hydrated. Build up slowly. I am a Personal Trainer. I lost 150% myself, I know how hard it is!

Debora I feel the same way have been really trying to walk but it is so painful I can walk around the house and to the mailbox but I can't my block its too far.....On a great diet have changed my eating totally no bread, sweets sugar potatoes hardly no fruit at all just baked meat lots of veggies and salads has brought my blood sugar down so much but the wieght is coming off to slow for me after 4 week had only lost 7 lbs so I think this will really help me

Teresa Graham Well done you. Sometimes it takes a long time to lose weight but you are doing awesome. I lost 140lb it is hard, but you are doing it 100% the right way. Every blessing from Ireland

***** this is not a get slim fast workout. This is a build your energy levels & get onto your feet again workout. If it's a fast thing it likely won't work. Not only to mention that but the people who need to work out sitting down are WAY beyond a 90 workout or quick fat burning thing. This is a lifestyle change.

Yeah. I agree with John. Rob is inspirational and gives me confidence I can get through the workout. He's so encouraging and the reminders to breathe were great.
